We have a strict policy for cancelations in less than 24 hours of the service appointment time frame. Our team works incredibly hard to ensure each client is taken care of. This requires carefully planning the days ahead and unfortunately last minute cancelations or last minute rescheduling causes a big, negative, ripple effect throughout our current day and days ahead. In an effort to keep ALL customers happy, you will be charged a small fee for last minute cancellations/rescheduling:

Cancelations that are done in less than 24 hours of the service appointment time range will result in an automatic $75 cancelation fee charge

Rescheduling appointments in less than 24 hours of the service appointment time range will result in an automatic $50 cancelation fee charge

We work off of 2-hour estimated time of arrival windows so that we can structure our day effectively. This allows us to get to the next client all while navigating traffic and many other variables that take a toll on our time throughout the day (for example: eating and breaks!).

If you book for an 8-10am appointment our team will notify you of an exact time they will arrive or will directly be there between that 8-10am (estimated).

We try to pack as much value as possible in our cleanings; we love our customers and want to make sure everyone feels taken care of! Our maintenance cleaning includes the outside of all appliances (refrigerator, microwave, and oven), dusting and wiping of all surfaces – such as tables, countertops, desks, dressers etc. and the wiping down of main door handles and doors, if dirty. We also vacuum and mop (if applicable) all floors in the home (not including the basement).

We may organize clothes that are left out, blankets and towels (if 1 Load of Laundry is exceeded we will apply our Organization Extra to the total). If required we will also vacuum upholstery. Cleaning faucets, sinks, and dirty dishes is also a part of our normal cleaning service (we provide our own natural dish soap).

We pay great attention to the bathrooms and bedrooms of each home – as both places are heavily used – it’s important they are completely clean for you! We’re so good you’ll want us back the next day (…it can be arranged)!

Our maintenance cleaning includes everything that was mentioned above.

Our first time clean is everything that is included with the maintenance cleaning plus some additional inclusions such as dusting/wiping down the light fixtures, outlet covers, doors, door frames, window frames, and baseboard molding. This also accounts for more time to be spent deep cleaning the exterior surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom(s). The biggest difference between this clean and the heavy duty deep clean is that this one does not include the interior of the appliances where the heavy duty deep clean does. If your home has not been cleaned professionally before, we do require the first cleaning to be a first time clean before we can honor the maintenance rates.

Our heavy duty deep cleaning is added in addition to the maintenance cleaning as an Extra (added at checkout). The deep cleaning includes baseboards, window beams, and blinds if necessary (we can only reach maximum heights of 8ft), air vents, deep scrubbing of bathroom(s), and all doors and doorknobs, finally, we also wipe down chairs. The interior of appliances is included in our deep clean.

We pride ourselves on our work so either with a standard, first time, or an addition of a deep cleaning we know you’ll be fully satisfied! Give us a try – you may like us and decide to keep us around for a bit (everything would always be clean).

All of our cleaners have at least 2-3-year experience in residential cleaning and are well trained in-house on our proprietary cleaning methods – we move with purpose – watch out!

Yes, we are!

We have an AMAZING redo policy! If you are not completely satisfied – we’ll come back and redo any missed spots/areas completely free of charge, whenever you want!

Yes we do! Whatever your needs are, don’t hesitate to reach out directly to us and we’ll see what we can do – we strive to use our resources and accommodate everyone and all jobs.
